Three letters :)... O.R.M

I see this type of weirdness all the time... The most recent was
something like this:

AND ((lower(a.firstName) LIKE NULL OR NULL IS NULL)
AND (lower(a.middleName) LIKE NULL OR NULL IS NULL)
AND (lower(a.lastName) LIKE '%foo%' OR '%foo%' IS NULL)
AND (lower(b.emailAddress) LIKE NULL OR NULL IS NULL) )

Granted this isn't WHERE FALSE, but I certainly see WHERE TRUE all the
time in similar scenarios and I have seen WHERE FALSE.

Sincerely,
